I have lately read Blood Sisters by Marylin Yalom and previously Antonia Frasers book about Marie Antoinette. In both books it suggests that the marriage of the Duke and Duchess of Angouleme was in name only. However I bought a biography about Madame Royale where on at least 2 occasions she thought herself pregnant. Does anyone have any more information.

I love blood sisters.Anyway I did some research and found out that the duchess her self was barren. Im not sure if it is true but if I do more research I will tell you if it is true or not.
